Are you using nitrogen with your wave? You probably will need to with selective. With our Ersa we need 99.9% pure nitrogen to make it acceptable. They spec 99.999% which means liquid nitrogen. We tried one board without nitrogen, it left a two in

Ersa selective solder machines for us. We have 5 dual pot machines and run double sided reflow - double sided thru hole.

Hi, I was using different brand machine but it will behave the same way as yours when it is dirty or clogged. Try to clean your nozzle and your supply mechanism(pump, propeller...) and you should get a smoother wave. Good luck!

Guys, thank you for your advice about Adipic Acid, it's an amazing! In my country one small box of Hakko Pretinning Solder paste (FS-100) costs USD30, 1 kg of this axid costs USD5.5 .

Bill, ENIAC, Thank you for your input. I'll do some research on the items you suggested and give it a try. The idea of having a steal nozzle that is thinned is defintely new to me, so I will check into that, as well as the brushes. Thank you guys.

You do not need much. We just take out pencil style stainless brush dip it in the powder and then scrub the nozzle.

You can have it either way. In each program you can select to have the side pressure active for the entire program. The factory setting is to have it release immediately after it pushes the pcb against the fixed rail.
